Roast Pork With Garlic Caper Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Dry the chops with paper towels, and season aggressively with salt, pepper and the thyme. Swirl the olive oil into a large skillet, and heat over medium until the oil begins to shimmer. Add chops, and cook until well browned on each side and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chops to a plate, and cover to keep warm.
• Drain the fat from the skillet, then melt 2 tablespoons of butter in it over medium heat until sizzling. Add the shallot and garlic, and sauté until the aromatics soften, reducing the heat if necessary, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the flour, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Whisk in the wine and chicken stock, raise heat to high and bring the liquid to a boil, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced by half, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Stir in the capers, parsley, lemon zest and juice and hot sauce to taste (if you're using it), and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until it's melted and the sauce looks smooth. Nestle the pork chops into the sauce, and allow them to warm up for a couple of minutes, then serve, pouring sauce over each pork chop to taste. Garnish with more fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Reserve 3 Tbsp. capers; mash remaining capers with garlic using mortar. Add dressing and peppercorns to caper mixture; reserve 2 Tbsp. caper mixture.
• Make 1-inch deep cuts in meat (do not break skin). Stuff meat cuts with remaining caper mixture.
• Add water to bottom of pressure cooker; place meat, skin-side up, in cooker. Lock pressure cooker lid in place. Cook on medium-high heat until pressure vent locks in place and regulator begins to rock gently. Reduce heat gradually to maintain slow steady rocking motion; cook on low 1 hour 20 min. Remove from heat. Let stand 10 min. or until pressure vent drops.
• Heat oven to 500ºF. Remove regulator from pressure cooker, then lid. Remove meat from cooker. Place meat, skin-side up, on foil-lined baking pan. Rub with reserved caper mixture; bake 10 to 15 min. or until skin is golden brown.
• Meanwhile, drain meat juices, skimming any excess fat. Pour meat juices into small saucepan; stir in sour cream and reserved capers. Cook 5 min. or until heated through. Serve with meat.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chops with salt and pepper.
• In a skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer, heat the vegetable oil. Add the chops and cook over medium-high heat for 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn and cook another 7 minutes or until done. Remove the chops, set aside and keep warm.
• Pour off the excess fat from the skillet. Add the onions and garlic. Cook and stir until wilted. Add the vinegar and reduce by half. Add the chicken broth, capers, mustard, tomato paste and sage. Cook and reduce by half.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and add any juices that may have accumulated around the pork chops. Swirl in the butter, check for seasoning.
• To serve, spoon the sauce over the meat and sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly oil a heavy-bottomed metal roasting pan. In a food processor, combine oil, garlic, rosemary, fennel seed, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pulse until a paste forms.
• With a paring knife, gently score the pork's fat layer, making 10 to 15 small 1/2-inch-deep cuts all over. Rub pork with garlic paste, pushing it into cuts. With kitchen twine, tie pork in 1-inch increments and transfer to pan.
• Roast until golden brown, 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 300 degrees and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center reads 170 degrees, about 2 1/2 hours. Transfer pork to a cutting board, cover with foil, and let rest 15 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, pour pan drippings into a small bowl and skim fat. Set pan over medium, add wine, and cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits, until wine is reduced by half, 4 minutes. Add flour and whisk to combine. Cook 1 minute. Slowly whisk in drippings and broth. Cook, whisking, until sauce thickens slightly, 3 minutes. Serve with pork.

Steps:

• Flatten chicken slightly; sprinkle with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken in oil for 5-7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer., Stir in the cream, wine, tomatoes and capers; cook until sauce is slightly thickened. Serve with pasta.
